PHOTONIS is a global leader in the design and manufacture of photon, electron and ion detection and amplification for use in night vision, space research, high energy physics, mass spectrometry, security and industry. We own dozens of global patents for our photonic innovations that lead to better vision and understanding that advances safety, exploration and health.

Our wide range of photon detectors can be customized to fit your specific application, providing superior detection technology. We manufacture standard and custom Image Intensifiers, Hybrid Photo Diodes, MCP/PMTs, Optical Receivers, and Streak Tubes to provide optimal timing and resolution within a specific spectral range. Our new Hi-QE photocathode allows you to customize your spectral response while improving the quantum efficiency of your detector by up to 50%. Learn More

PHOTONIS ion and electron amplifiers are the #1 detectors in the market, with hundreds of standard and custom types to choose from, fitting any detection need. We manufacture Channeltron Electron Multipliers and a wide variety of Microchannel Plates which can be customized to various shapes, coatings and geometries as well as with an electro-optic housing.

Our Digital Imaging products combine the high quality of CMOS with PHOTONIS low light technology (less than 4e- at 100 fps) to offer a superior low light camera without additional illumination. These cameras are ideal for microscopy, surveillance, UAV or other mobile applications where day-through-night lighting conditions typically occur.
